Apart from dumping Round Robin to the cesspool where it came from and since our Fearless Leader of the ATP Mr Disney Etienne de Villiers cares really what the fans think.
It's time for some suggestions that Mr Disney should listen to, since he wants to make tennis more interesting for the masses.
- Instead of a TB, they should have a serving contest where they place a cone in the service box and the person who hits it the most will win. (GWH)
- It should be decided on a round of Greco-Roman wrestling. Labadze will then proceed to become the marketing dream of the ATP. (Merton)
- If Tursunov is playing, then he must be allowed to have a blog off against his opponent except if it is Federer or Nadal, cause they have to be in the final. (GWH)
- As for the clay they have to do as many 360s while sliding laterally and forwards within a minute and have a tennis ball balanced on their head. (GWH)
- Instead of hitting a cone, they should bring out a lion in a cage on the service line - most balls served into the lions mouth wins. Bring on the Spectacle, Disney boy... and serve that cotton candy... (TenHound)
- Another idea to replace the tie-break: they pick 2 random spectators in the crowd (one for each player). The 1st player who gets his serve returned by the spectator loses.
OR
No spectator involved but they can do something like the penalty kicks in football (since Mr. Disney loves the WC system). If the opponent can't return the serve it counts as a goal. (Saumon)
Re: Fearless Leader Mr Disney Welcomes MTF suggestions to reform the ATP
Instead of a tiebreak the crowd will decide the winner of a set in a "HOT or NOT" contest, where the 2 players strip to their underwear (got to keep it decent, there are kids in those events after all) and strut around the court to be judged by the spectators. The hotter of the 2 will win the set.
That will make even Nalby sweat every day in the gym and cut down on those burgers! As for Ljubicic, Stepanek, etc, they will have to make sure they break, or have plastic surgery, or play against each other.

To implement a system of apartheid where the top 10 players can only mix with other top 10 players and that they can only leave through certain doors, whereas the others have to go through numbered doors like 11-30 depending on ranking.
Oh I forgot de Villiers is from South Africa and he would be used to apartheid.

From Lee
There will be an armwrestling competition held in Las Vegas between tournament directors to decide who will get the players they wanted to play.
Fucking brilliant. That must be why he gets the big bucks.
Not surprising you'd come up with a statement like this and there are more than enough reasons as to why Disney is a problem and not an asset to the ATP.

Another one: the player that gets a BH winner from Lalo is automatically disqualified from the tournament. If the BH is DTL, he's also disqualified from next week's tournament.

Re: Mr Disney De Villiers welcomes MTF suggestions to reform the ATP
new rule: beer tennis
you have to drink a beer ad fundum(=all at once) after every game you win. Grand slams count double
If you try to get the other drunk by tanking a set, the crowd can decide if they want to give you a full round of 5 or 10 beers.
French people are allowed to drink wine and Russian wodka.

That's a very interesting suggestion. Although in my opinion, only drinks of the same alcohol content should be allowed, to keep it fair. The player who wins the coin toss will decide the type of drink.
This idea gives a whole new dimension to tennis, including endorsement deals, off-season training practices etc...
It also gives a whole new meaning to 5-set matches. And in the end, no matter who wins, both players will be happily singing and laughing together, who knows, even treat the spectators to a strip-tease dance...

*Federer plays with Wooden racket.
*Monfils should be allowed to bring his Laptop with Internet access on the court.
Re: Mr Disney De Villiers welcomes MTF suggestions to reform the ATP
exactly...put the courts in circus tents
and if we are already trying to make every round robin tournament a federer vs. nadal final, we might as well save the other players the trip and only have one match each week

Commentators should be ordered to refer to all Russian players as evil communists. The masses will clamour to watch good do battle with evil and ratings will go through the roof. It'll be Rocky IV on a tennis court every week. People will be too engrossed in the action to bother checking if Russia has indeed reverted to communism.

BALCO should be official supplier of suppliments to the players.
